Multi-product links are similar to storefronts in that several items are displayed within the link. However, the difference is the additional flexibility that you have to customize content and presentation. You can create mini-storefronts that an affiliate would be able to place directly on his page, versus the standard LinkShare storefront which appears as a text link that redirects to a LinkShare-hosted page containing a full page storefront.

Below is a series of examples and templates for creating multi-product links in four different formats:

• Template 9: Three Product Display - Horizontal
• Template 10: Three Product Display - Vertical
• Template 11: Top Ten List
• Template 12: Single Product Highlight, Related Items in Text

This link features 3 items - whether they are top sellers, new items, gift ideas, etc. is up to you - grouped together and displayed horizontally on a page. The images and text would be linked for each product. A border is provided around the entire link, but you - the merchant - can change this (not the affiliate).
